A protester runs after setting fire to a car during clashes with police in front of the Security Administrative building in Alexandria November 23, 2011. After six days of violence that has killed more than 30 and four days before voting for parliament begins, there was no sign of an end to the confrontation between Egypts military rulers and liberals keen to complete a revolt that ousted Hosni Mubarak in February by installing an interim civilian administration.

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this powerful print captured by Mohamed Abd El-Ghany, chaos and tension fill the air as a protester flees from the scene after setting a car ablaze during clashes with police. The image portrays the relentless struggle between Egypt's military rulers and liberal activists who are determined to bring about lasting change following the ousting of former President Hosni Mubarak. Taken on November 23,2011, in front of Alexandria's Security Administrative building, this snapshot encapsulates the dangerous environment that prevailed just days before parliamentary voting was set to begin. With more than 30 lives lost over six days of violence, there seemed to be no resolution in sight for these opposing forces. The photograph showcases an unrecognizable vehicle engulfed in flames against a darkened night sky. The silhouette of the fleeing protester adds an element of human drama amidst chaotic surroundings. Smoke billows into the air, creating an eerie atmosphere that mirrors both nature's destructive power and man-made turmoil. El-Ghany's creative use of light and composition brings attention to the remains left behind after such intense clashes—a stark reminder of how far-reaching consequences can arise from political unrest. This image serves as a testament to those brave individuals who risk their safety while fighting for change and highlights the ongoing struggles faced by nations striving for democracy.
